80s datejust

Hi folks,

What do you think of the authenticity datejust in the pics?
A friend of mine wants to buy it and restore it for the birthday of his girlfriend.






Thanks for inputs.

Cheers

Alex

I think it's not a Datejust.

Yes, but it's a Date, not a Datejust.

Unless they are giving it away, it might be better to find one in good condition with a guarantee of some sort.
At least get a solid estimate on repair from a third party.
